Which of the following expressions is 8x + 16 not equivalent?
A. 2x + 5 + 6x + 11
B. 10x - 2x - 20 + 4
C. 2(4x + 8)
D. 8(x + 2)
(honestly i dont know what to choose)
A. 2x + 5 + 6x + 11 ----> 8x + 16
B. 10x - 2x - 20 + 4 -----> 8x - 16
C. 2(4x + 8) -----> 8x + 16
D. 8(x + 2) -----> 8x + 16
Now all you had to tell which was NOT 8x+16
oh.......ohhh its B thanks Reiny!
nvm i got my answer its A.
Tysm!
To determine which of the given expressions is not equivalent to 8x + 16, we need to simplify each expression and compare them to 8x + 16.
Let's start by simplifying each expression:
A. 2x + 5 + 6x + 11
Combine like terms: 8x + 16
This expression is equivalent to 8x + 16.
B. 10x - 2x - 20 + 4
Combine like terms: 8x - 16
This expression is not equivalent to 8x + 16.
C. 2(4x + 8)
Apply the distributive property: 8x + 16
This expression is equivalent to 8x + 16.
D. 8(x + 2)
Apply the distributive property: 8x + 16
This expression is equivalent to 8x + 16.
So, the expression that is not equivalent to 8x + 16 is option B, which simplifies to 8x - 16.
